I have installed a second IDE disk into my PC running 98SE, I then used the
setup floppy to partition the disk into two 16Gb partitions I use under 98 and
a third partition of 8Gb that I intend to use for linux.
Gwendolyn pointed out about /dev/hda and /dev/hdb, so in my case I am dealing
with hdb. Do I need to repartition the 8Gb I set aside to produce the three
partitions mentioned in the install guide prior to commencing the install?
Thanks,
Tim.
